After returning to Fengqi Palace, Gu Yanyue couldn't wait to pull Yuwen Ran into the inner room. She was always worried about how Yuwen Ran would deal with Prince Xiang. "Ah Ran! You said yesterday that you would tell me today how to deal with Prince Xiang."
"I plan to personally go to Qianzhou. Qianzhou has suffered such a great disaster, and Prince Xiang has such a style. I am afraid that the people will have a bad impression of the Yuwen royal family from now on. So I will go to Qianzhou in person to comfort the people of Qianzhou and share their suffering!"
Yu Wenran reached out and hugged Gu Yanyue, whispering in her ear: "Ayue, you will definitely support me, right?"
Gu Yanyue smiled faintly and said, "Of course, but Ah Ran, can you take me to Qianzhou with you?"
After hearing this, Yuwen Ran loosened his grip on Gu Yanyue's hand and instead held her hand, shaking his head. "No! Ah Yue, Qianzhou is too dangerous right now! No matter what, there's absolutely no way I can take you with me."
Hearing Yu Wenran say this, Gu Yanyue was a little unhappy. She curled her lips and said, "You have taken me to the battlefield with you, why can't you take me with you to Qianzhou? You know that if I go, I will definitely be able to help!"
"Ayue, it wasn't my intention to bring you to the battlefield. If you hadn't followed me secretly, I wouldn't have brought you to a dangerous place like a battlefield."
This time, Yu Wenran would not let Gu Yanyue go with him to Qianzhou no matter what.
"Besides, the battlefield is different from Qianzhou! On the battlefield, I at least knew that Tuoba Chen would never kill you. But Qianzhou is full of dangers now. I can't let you go to Qianzhou with me and not even have a full meal."
Gu Yanyue wanted to say something else: "But..."
Before Gu Yanyue could say anything, she was interrupted by Yu Wenran: "No need for buts. I will not take you with me to Qianzhou no matter what."
"Ayue, please think more about Little Wonton. You just came back from the Western Regions not long ago, and you are going to Qianzhou with me again. What will happen to Little Wonton?"
"Do you want her to lose her parents for a few more months?"
"And the last time you went to the Western Regions with me, Little Yuntun was almost kidnapped. If Master He hadn't showed up in time, we might not have seen Little Yuntun again."
Gu Yanyue also refused to give in: "I can leave Xiao Yuntun to Ruoruo's care. This time, I can ask the secret guards to protect Ruoruo and Xiao Yuntun well. It will definitely not happen again. And Ah Ran, you know me well. I don't want to be trapped in this harem as a queen for the rest of my life. I also want to contribute to the country!"
Even though she traveled through ancient times, she is still a modern person after all, not to mention that she is a career-oriented woman in modern times.
She absolutely could not accept the outcome of being trapped in the palace for the rest of her life, unable to go anywhere.
"I don't want you to stay in this palace for the rest of your life. Everything else is fine, but you absolutely cannot go to Qianzhou."
After saying that, Yu Wenran left a sentence, "Think about it carefully."
He just turned his sleeves and left.
Because he was angry with Gu Yanyue, Yu Wenran waited in the imperial study for a long time, but Gu Yanyue did not send anyone to invite him back. In order to prevent Gu Yanyue from finding him, when he went out, he specifically told Zheng Hai loudly that he was going to the imperial study.
Yu Wenran waited in the imperial study for a whole day. Not only did he not see Gu Yanyue and her palace servants, he didn't even see the ministers who came to report to him.
It was not until it was completely dark that Yuwen Ran "reluctantly" returned to Fengqi Palace.
He had already made up his mind on the way that if Gu Yanyue bowed to him first, he would "reluctantly" forgive her.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered Fengqi Palace, Gu Yanyue was nowhere to be seen in the outer hall, nor even in the inner hall.
He quickly called the maidservant from Fengqi Palace and asked, "Where is the Empress?"
The young maid met Yuwen Ran's anxious look and trembled as she said, "Your Majesty, the Empress left the palace this morning after you left. She said she's been living outside the palace for the past few days. When Your Majesty has thought it through, you can bring her back from outside the palace."
Yuwen Ran remained silent for a long time after listening to this. Just when the little palace maid thought she could leave, she suddenly heard Yuwen Ran say, "Good! Good! Very good! Now she has learned to leave the palace after quarreling with me. I will definitely not indulge her this time. I will let her know who is the emperor!"
Yu Wenran naturally knew where Gu Yanyue would go after leaving the palace. She would definitely stay at Bai Youjin's place.
Bai Youjin is a martial arts expert and is Gu Yanyue's master, so he is naturally at ease.
But if she goes to find Bai Youjin, she will definitely tell Bai Youjin everything, which will make things difficult for me because when I go to pick her up, I will definitely be scolded by Bai Youjin.
After hearing what Yuwen Ran said, the little palace maid knelt on the ground and trembled even more violently, thinking to herself: When will your Majesty come back to the palace?
Your Majesty, it is truly horrible without you!
Zheng Hai, who was guarding outside the door, had the same feeling. When he heard that Gu Yanyue had left the palace early this morning, his hand holding the whisk began to tremble, for fear that Yuwen Ran would leave the palace in the middle of the night to bring Gu Yanyue back.
He had even prepared to go and get the carriage, but he didn't expect to hear Yu Wenran say that he shouldn't spoil Gu Yanyue.
The whisk in his hand was shaking even more violently. Based on his previous understanding of Yuwen Ran, Yuwen Ran would definitely not be able to endure it for a day. At the latest after the court session tomorrow, he would definitely ask him to prepare a carriage to leave the palace to find Gu Yanyue.
As Zheng Hai expected, Yuwen Ran left the court the next day without even changing out of his court robes. He said to Zheng Hai, "Prepare the carriage! I want to leave the palace!"
Zheng Hai looked as if he had expected this, and asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, I have already prepared the carriage. I have a question for you: Are you leaving the palace to look for the Empress?"
Yuwen Ran snorted, "Who said I was going to look for the Queen? I just haven't been to my private residence for a long time, and I wanted to go there to see if they have taken good care of the garden I prepared for Xiao Yuntun."
Zheng Hai didn't say much, but he knew it clearly in his heart. Everyone knew that the Queen went straight to your private residence after leaving the palace.
He just followed Yuwen Ran and helped him change into casual clothes before leaving the palace.
When they arrived at the door of Yuwen Ran's private residence, Yuwen Ran got off the carriage and stood at the door for a long time, not going in.
He first straightened his robe, then felt that his hair was not tied well enough, so he took it off and tied it again.
After all this trouble, half an hour had passed before Yuwen Ran dared to knock on the door of his private residence. If someone didn't know him, they would think he was the guest.
